BNB Smart Chain’s Maxwell hard fork has three main proposals geared toward boosting scalability, validator sync and overall network efficiency.
BNB Smart Chain’s Maxwell upgrade appears to have gone live, with average block times falling to 0.8 seconds, down from 1.5 on Monday.
The Maxwell hard fork was set to cut block times in half, among other upgrades.
BNB Chain said on Thursday that the Maxwell upgrade will make transactions faster for users, create more responsive decentralized applications (DApps) for developers, lower the latency for decentralized finance, boost scalability, validator sync and overall network efficiency.
